This seems to be an exciting sci-fi book. This wizardry character seems to control so much powers and must be checked. Thanks for the review.

This story is intriguing, but I don't care for sci-fi or fantasy! I try to avoid anything related to magic. I do like the idea of a strong female character! I will have to pass on this book. Thanks for the great review!

This book seems like a thriller, considering your review. However, I'm not a big fan of magic books, so I'll pass this on. Congratulations on BOTD!

Dragons, powers like mindspeak, and Yanara's utilization of wormholes as shortcuts are all present in Elia's engaging story. Although the tale accentuates the melodrama of the expanding family, there is a ton of action. The first-person narration of the hero comes out as rude and uninterested, but it's okay. Thanks for the review and Congrats to the author on BOTD.

It never ceases to amaze me how far and wide can outstretch the imagination of the authors creating unbelievable worlds and interesting stories. By nature, I have more "down to earth" personality, and thereby Sci-fi/Fantasy is completely not my cup of tea, but congratulations with BOTD, anyway!

Yanara's adventure sounds like one that is full of adventure and fantasy. The world of magic and planet manipulation sounds like one that would make quite a read!

I like science-fiction fantasy books with strong female lead characters. I think it will be interesting to see how K'tul manages to circumnavigate Calypso. Throwing your own planet into complete darkness would be detrimental to life too. Nice review.

Lots of space opera and wizardry right here. Not my cup of tea, but this book seems loaded with the kinds of goodies that readers of these novels will enjoy. Congrats to Andri E Elia on the achievement and BOTD.

I would say that sci-fi lover will truly enjoy this book, however, I am not a fan of sci-fi books so ill skip this time. It sounds like Yanara has difficulty with his power, resulting him trouble. It looks like the description the author gives to the story is captivating to the intended audience. Your review is great. And congratulations on BOTD!

Celestial wizard Yanara’s powers are so intriguing so I’m looking forward to digging into this novel to know them and to know the other equally intriguing characters in this futuristic novel. I like exciting stories and this one is right up my alley.

I am not surprised to learn that the novel has won several literary contests because when I learned about its premise, I was immediately intrigued. I would also like to commend the world-building aspect of the story and how the author was able to create a convincing and fascinating world. Lastly, I also like how the story started by immediately introducing the readers to the problem (the story started by introducing the readers to the Big Bend).
Congratulations to the author for BOTD!
